Our city continues to lead the world in trendsetting innovation as it welcomes the first Techi robot butler designed for condo living at YOTELPAD Miami.

Imagine being greeted by the future every time you come home to YotelPad Miami. “At Yotel, we’ve always put technology at the heart of everything we do and we don’t just do it for the sake of it,” says Hubert Viriot, Yotel CEO. “To us, it has to be practical and functional and directly benefit either our guests or crew.” The two-compartment robot butlers are designed to ride the elevator and are capable of delivering loads up to 77 pounds including: beverages, food, treats, gifts, documents and more. In addition, they can be programmed to speak a variety of languages, dialogues and play digital files with music and voice recordings. During their downtime, the robots will roam the lobby, engage in conversation, play music and pass out treats. Designed and developed by robotics solutions company, Techmetics, the new service-oriented Techi robot butler will work side by side with staff to make deliveriesto231Pads(residences)and222 Cabins(hotelrooms).Itiscleverlyautomatedtointeractwithpeople.
